How to play Tangled Up In You by Aaron Lewis

Forget everything you've seen on how to play this until now - this is EXACTLY how Aaron plays this song. Period. It's in Open Dflat tuning, which means from top string (fattest string) to bottom, it goes - Df, Af, Df, Ef, Af, Df (f = flat). You can use a tuner to tune your guitar this way or you can tune to my video - before I start I hit each string individually so you can tune to it. Once you get the tuning right, it's an easy song to play and it sounds beautiful.

Thanks Dusty. As a long time Aaron Lewis/ Staind fan and adequate acoustic guitar player I am so glad I swerved into this video. I plan to work it out this weekend and play it for my wife when she returns from a visit with her family. I'm 63 years young, never too old for this kind of music.

I finally met someone worthy of this song and the other lessons here did not sound  right. Thank you for your easy to follow and slow instructions.

Dude you must be a music teacher because you explain this perfect. Because of this video am I subscribing, thanks

[DustyBelew]

Thanks, I sat front and center during the Nashville acoustic show and watched closely - this is how Aaron does it.

I've gone here for years to reference the tuning hahaha. Thanks man for all the years of good songs.

[cmcosens]

Thank you so much!!! For years I've been looking for the correct tuning. Thanks for explaining this in a way I could understand!!

Thanks!  ...and for rockin' the pajama pants, JD shirt and the ball cap.  Why dress up for a video?  Be WHO you are... Will be following up on more of your videos!  Love the song and can't wait to start working on it based on your video!  Thanks a million!

Dude thank you for this video. I can completely sing the pitches but I haven't found a good guitar runthrough until this. Rock on brother.

People that can't play bar chords either need more practice or they need to buy a guitar that doesn't have action like a violin. I watched Aaron play this on the Lake Tahoe video and it's spot on. Once I saw the chords you used and tuned one of my older guitars, it was really quite simple.

Can't find tabs or atleast official tabs for this song, was gonna knock on the video for breaking it down but I'm sure from a phone, and if you know just a little this is an awesome video for a song where there just isn't alot of instruction. You did awesome was able to pick it up in 1 night thanks man

[JayPypeVox]

Thank you, Dusty, for making this video!! I'm a HUGE Aaron Lewis fan and absolutely love this song! I was hoping there was an easier way to play it than the official tab book. My ex fiancee and I had agreed on this song for our wedding song, which obviously didn't happen. But, I am hopeful that something can be reconciled and maybe this song will help that along!! Thank you again for the tutorial and I'll keep you posted! :)

[FinstaDaMinsta]

Dude got woken up to make the video! But he nailed it

[pinkbrisingr]

Nice job man. God Bless. Dont worry about ur singing. It was helpful in learning. Thank you from an Aaron Lewis acquaintance & singer/songwriter/rhythm guitarist.

[AzraelPercussionNEO]

Thank YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS :'). I am continuing my guitar education. I love this song so much and I am a Huge Staind fan. I figured it had to do with tunning the guitar

[mikerivas]

Thanks man I've had a guitar for years and learned this song

[perezgutierrezalanisrael]
